  Need a BIGGER KITCHEN for all The Holiday & Special Event Cooking!! Find New Homes for Sale in Hampstead NC Find New Homes for Sale in Hampstead NC I love to eat delicious food, but who doesn’t that would be why Gym’s memberships exist in America. When I left home for the first time, one of the speeches that my mom gave me was… "You better learn how to cook... the way you eat girl!"  What a blessing it was that I went from my childhood home, in TX, to the Military for the first 9 years of my adult life. I was single, and either ate out, participated in a pot-luck, or enjoyed the fine dining of the many dining facilities on the bases wherever I was stationed. I also ate a lot of cereal and noodles (lol). Within one month of getting out of the military...everything hit the fan 8 years a...

Pcs Season? I Was Just Getting Ready for Santa! Are you Ready for Pcs Season? Hello Friends and Neighbors!Someone said something in passing a few days ago, and I had to think for a moment... They mentioned that, as a Real Estate agent, I should get ready for PCS Season. Well I should correct them... I'm not going anywhere (well...yet). The people moving in and out are the active participants in that party... If going from on part of the United States to the other is a pill, throw an overseas tour in the mix. So your're fighting for orders, need to put your vehicle in POV storage, need to host a yard sale, need to organize a long term storage, or a partial DITY move.... and it just keeps going. Been there, done that. Relocating? So... you are moving or pcs'ing (permenant change of statio...

 “Water Peep” was my mother-in-laws term for broken views available from homes across the street from waterfront properties.   Several years ago, we listed a second row property in Hampstead, NC 28443, across the street from the Intracoastal Waterway.  The home, a 40 year old brick ranch, was never built for views.  To make it worse, the waterway home on the ICWW side had a leafy privacy screen.  Yet, my client’s home was on higher ground and, in leafless seasons, permitted “water-peep” from outside. On the inside, if I stood in one or two spots and looked hard, I might glimpse blue water.  But, our client asked we advertise “water view”  in our remarks.   She’d lived there for years, long before the trees across the street grew up.  I had no doubt her “water view” still existed in her ...

  It’s late October and the Pender Post reports the Hampstead public boat ramp construction is underway and may be complete as early as January 2012.  Currently, pilings are being driven into the Intracoastal Waterway bed to support docks.  Given Hampstead’s proximity to the water, a public launch facility is an important asset to the community.  Obtaining prime property at a great price was the key to the project.  The Lewis Road location, near Pecan Grove Plantation, is a great midpoint for boaters north and south of Hampstead.  Next spring, boaters from all over the county will be benefitting from this long needed public boat ramp!
